I moved from there about 5 years ago. It was my childhood home and this video gave me a lot of memories back. It sure was a horrible place to live with the crime rate being so high. But it'll always be the best place in the world for me. Even though I'm in a much better place, I still get homesick. Anytime I visit I break down in tears because I'm so happy to be back home

A little small city between two major Prisons. No jobs, no life. It’s like living in the movie Groundhog Day. Each day exactly the same, with the same faces over and over again. I left quick.

Great video, but Elmira and surrounding cites are literally known as 'The Armpit of America"..... Worst place EVER. NEVER go near it.... 😆

Major. It won’t revive. The city functions off of human services. The homeless issue is disgusting. The idea is to keep the human service funds from the government pouring in. It will never be more than it is.

@@robs531streets are covered in garbage worse than most big cities, crime rate is pretty high for a city this size, lots of addiction happening, tons of homelessness, even more abandoned/burned out houses, not a lot of good employment opportunity, I could go on. That said, cost of living is super cheap and you can make a nice life here if you mostly keep to yourself. I make significantly less than I did where I used to live but I have more money because everything is so cheap. A part of that might be that the restaurant scene is atrocious unless you like bad pizza and mediocre wings so I don't eat out nearly as much as I used to. I've learned to cook so many things since I got out here. I'm happy and many of the people here are happy, but honestly most people wouldn't consider Elmira to be a nice place to live.
